Bonus Info

The Bronze eight hour course covers off key riding competencies – that’s quite a lot! As an example, let’s take a look at motorcycle control. There are four aspects to controlling a motorcycle:

Positioning

Speed Management

Progression

Stability / Smoothness

During this section of the course you’ll practice adopting and maintaining the right position on the road at all times (relative to the riding task and hazards present), maintaining progress in traffic flow (keeping up with traffic, accelerating, overtaking if have to), gear selection for road speed, braking, stopping plus more.
